The Prime Meridian, which is why it is known as the Greenwich Meridian.
What is the function of greenwich meridian?
Just as the equator is 0° latitude, the Greenwich Meridian, or Prime Meridian, is 0° longitude. It is the origin from which all longitudes are measured.
Are the prime meridian and the greenwich meridian the same?
Yes and no! The Prime Meridian is the technical term for the line of longitude (0º) which passes through Greenwich, UK.
What place does the prime meridian meet on the globe?
The prime meridian does not meet. It starts at the north pole and ends at the south pole, passing through Greenwich, London. At the poles it becomes the anti-meridian or the international date line
